Discover the untold story behind one of Kathleen Norris's deeply personal relationships in Rebecca Sue. Best known for her insightful and poignant reflections on faith and life, Norris steps into uncharted territory by sharing an intimate memoir exploring the life of her younger sister Becky. Born with perinatal hypoxia, Becky's life was shaped by physical and mental disabilities, yet her spirit and resilience illuminate the hidden power of faith, family, and love.
With Norris's signature blend of poetic prose, spiritual reflection, and heartfelt storytelling, Rebecca Sue invites readers into a profoundly moving narrative. This isn't just a memoir; it's a tender tribute to Becky's intelligence, her struggles, and her extraordinary ability to inspire those around her. Through Becky, Norris examines the strength of familial bonds, the complexity of emotional and practical caregiving, and the myriad ways God works in our lives—seen and unseen.

The result is an invitation for all readers to discover their own humanity and to glimpse the hidden hand of God in all things."

"Kathleen Norris turns the story of her sister, Becky, into one of the most memorable eulogies you'll ever hear—loving, honest, sacred. With vulnerability, humor, and the depth of spiritual insight we've come to expect from Norris, this account of her sister's life made me want to read her books all over again."
